Summit Entertainment, the company behind the Twilight Saga, is looking to stay in the vampire business — and has enlisted Brad Pitt and his Plan B production company to help.

According to THR, Pitt will produceVlad, a script about the younger Dracula when he was a Prince known as Vlad the Impaler, written by Sons of Anarchy actor (who also screen tested for the lead role in Thor) Charlie Hunnam. The movie has been in development for a little while, and Summit is in negotiations to hire music video director Anthony Mandler, whose visual sense is drawing comparisons to 300 director Zack Snyder.
